They always fit right in, on the go or at the table served with a nice green salad and Riesling. These little bites are quite adaptable. The Flamiche usually uses a lot of cream, for this skinny version, I’ve done a velouté instead to lower the calorie intake. Also, I’ve used my favourite trick to bring down the calories; I’ve used phyllo lightly sprayed with olive oil instead of…
